On this episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones is joined by Danny Parkins for a conversation that goes from the World Cup to the NBA free agency.
Bo and Danny start with Team USA’s loss to Belgium and what it says about the current state of American soccer. They break down the Balogun red-card drama, whether the U.S. benefited from a favorable draw, why this might still be the most talented team the country has ever put on the field, and whether the American youth soccer system is actually built to develop top-level players.
From there, they shift to the NBA and dig into the Lakers’ roster, Luka’s fit, Bronny’s possible role, and what kind of team Los Angeles is really trying to build. They also talk through the Celtics’ roster decisions, the changing math of paying star players, and the most fascinating possible next chapter for LeBron.
Then Danny delivers an all-time dispatch from suburbia, with stories involving a reported squirrel theft, a feud over chickens, kids cutting through a backyard, a police response to someone yelling about gas prices, and a suspicious potato chip bag that turned out to be exactly what you’d expect.
